1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Working Group on Teaching Educators and Clinicians How (WGTEACH) has been charged with writing a report to review best, evidence-based practices in various aspects of the teaching of medical physics. These aspects include not only didactic teaching and mentoring in the classroom and clinic, but also teaching K-12 and undergraduate students and interacting with the public, including patients. This report also touches on virtual and remote learning, adult learning theory, implications for teaching from neuroscience research on learning, and the role of accrediting and governing agencies in education.
